Chapter 1
I'm back! Welcome everybody to the first chapter of 'Will of Fire'. Here, is where we really get into the true story. And I have to say, I'm surprised for the positive feed that the prologue received. I honestly thought that I did a not so good job on it. Anyway, answering some questions in the reviews; Izuku and Katsuki will be best friends and rivals. His powers are like the ones that the Mera-Mera No Mi except, the fact that he can't become fire. That might come in the future. And I think that's all, so let's go to the story!
Legend:
"Talking."
'Thinking...'
Chapter 1: An Accident makes a Reunion
"Are you ready?" Inko asked her son that was going to his first day of school.
"Yes mom." Izuku said strapping his backpack to him.
"Pencil?" She asked and Izuku nodded.
"Yep."
"Snack?"
"Yes."
"Tissues?" Inko asked and Izuku smiled at her.
"Mom, I have everything. Anyway, I need to go. Kachan is waiting for me and you know how he can get." Izuku joked and Inko nodded with a smile.
"Izuku; I love you." Izuku looked at her with a smile.
"Me too. Bye mom!" He said as he rushed outside and started to walk towards his blonde and explosive friend house.
"You finally arrived." Katsuki said and Izuku shrugged.
"I'm not that late. Let's go. I want to make a good impression on my first day." Izuku said passing by Katsuki making him frown.
"OI! Wait for me!" He screamed as he rushed to his friend's side.
And so, Izuku and Katsuki started to walk towards their new school. "So, what do you think this is going to be?" Izuku asked him and Katsuki shrugged.
"Don't know. Don't care. I ust know that we will be roomed with a bunch of fucking losers." He grumbled and Izuku smirked.
"So you don't think that I'm a loser? That's so sweet Kachan." He teased and Katsuki glared at him.
"Fucking watch it."
Izuku raised his hands "Okay, okay. By the way; what does 'fucking' means? You say it a lot lately."
Katsuki shrugged "Don't know. Mom says it a lot when she is angry, happy, sad." Katsuki explained and Izuku nodded.
"Okay. So, it's something good?" Izuku asked still not getting the meaning of the word.
"I don't care. I like it." Katsuki said grinning and Izuku shrugged, if Kachan likes it, it is his problem.
*Classroom*
"Welcome to your first year of school." The teacher said with a surprising lack of motivation. But it was understandable. The whole class was a mess. No one was paying attention at the teacher, they were talking between themselves or just admiring Katsuki and his quirk.
Many of the students of this class went to preschool together so they already knew each other. There wasn't any awkwardness between each other.
Izuku was just sitting there waiting that his ego centrical friend to finish boasting. His ego was sometimes big enough that he couldn't handle.
Even though he have's what might be consider a flashy quirk, he doesn't brag a lot about it. Maybe because his mom told him to not do it. For some reason, his mom is really worried about him showing his quirk in public.
Anyway, he looked at the teacher one more time that was trying to make an attempt to bring control back to him in his class. He did it by stretching his arm and giving Katsuki a chop on the head.
Katsuki frowned and cursed a little and after some laughs, the class finally started.
*After School*
"I don't like that guy." Katsuki grumbled and Izuku smirked.
"Why? Because he put you on your place?" He teased and Katsuki glared at him.
"Shut up! You were supposed to back me up! That's the sidekick job." Katsuki screamed at him and Izuku rolled his eyes.
"For the last time; I will never be your sidekick." Izuku said and Katsuki scoffed at him. They kept on walking towards their neighborhood. They took a route that crosses something close to a forest. They used to play in here when they were smaller. It was either in Katsuki's house, their secret base or this forest.
They kept walking towards their destination, when Izuku stopped to see a tree. It was an average tree, only difference it was taller, and had more branches, making it easy to climb. Grinning, he got an idea.
"Hey Kachan! Want to climb this tree?" He asked and Katsuki stopped and stared at the tree.
"It's pretty tall." He simply stated and Izuku smirked.
"What? Afraid?" He teased. Katsuki grumbled a little, before throwing his backpack to the ground, and started to climb the tree. Izuku chuckled and followed his friend.
While Katsuki stopped first thinking that he got high enough, Izuku continued. Every chance that he haves to win over his friend, he takes it.
That way, he can tease him after.
"C'mon Kachan! I didn't know you are afraid from highs!" Izuku teased and Katsuki frowned.
"I'm not fucking scared!"
"Then why are you there like a scared kitty? While I'm going even higher towards the sky and- WOW!" Izuku screamed as the branch he was on, started to crack.
Katsuki eyes were filled with concern. "Oi. I think you need to climb down now."
Izuku nodded "Yeah. Just give me a momen-"
*CRACK*
"Or not." Izuku said as he clanged to the branch that was starting to break. Izuku weight was making the branch go down until...
*CRACK*
The branch broke in two, making Izuku fall. He passed Katsuki and hit the ground with a thump. Katsuki was eyeing at Izuku body that was not moving and had his eyes half-closed. A red liquid could be seen coming from Izuku's head.
"DEKU!"
*Hospital*
Katsuki's scream was heard by some people that when they saw the situation, they called for an ambulance that arrived rather quickly. They took Izuku and called Inko and informed her what happened to her son.
She had been crying since she arrived in there. Mitsuki Bakugo, Katsuki's mother and Katsuki are there too waiting for the doctors to give them any news.
"Come on Honey, don't cry. Everything is going to be fine." Mitsuki tried to comfort the crying woman with no effect.
"B-B-But what *sob* if he d-d-dies?" Inko asked between sobs and continued to cry as Mitsuki hugged her.
Katsuki was in front of the door, waiting for any news. He didn't know how much time passed until the door was finally open and a tired doctor came from it. Both women looked at him and he gave them a small reassuring smile.
"He will live. He fell and hit his head against something, a rock probably. He was in danger, but now he is safe." The doctor explained and Inko let out a relieved sigh, while Katsuki and Mitsuki grinned.
"But, there is something important that I want to talk with you Miss Midoriya. May we talk in my office?" The doctor asked receiving confused looks from the two grownups. Inko nodded meekly, as she stood up and followed the doctor. Mitsuki went too, to make sure the doctor doesn't try any 'weird shit' as she stated.
Once in the office the doctor sat behind his desk and Mitsuki and Inko in front of it. The doctor siged as he leaned back. "Mrs. Midoriya, as I already said, your son is in no danger right now. But, all this will be expensive. And I want to know if you can afford it." The doctor syayed bluntly as he put a slip of paper on the table.
Inko took the piece of paper and gasped at the amount. "T-This is too much! I can't afford it!" Inko said and the doctor sighed.
"I'm sorry Miss Midoriya."
Inko sobbed while Mitsuki was rubbing her back, "Don't worry honey, we can help. How much is the amount to pay?" Inko hand her the piece of paper to her longtime friend. Mitsuki eyes widened and then she glared at the doctor. "What the fuck is tis price!? What is your benefit on putting such price at saving one life asshole!?"
The doctor gulped "It was placed by my superiors." He said and Mitsuki sighed annoyed.
"But if he is fine now, why the amount to pay is so high?" She demanded and the doctor sighed.
"He is stable. For now. We were going to perform the surgery, but first we need to make sure that the payment is alright." The doctor explained and Inko looked at the doctor with fierce eyes before Mitsuki could speak.
"I can pay."
"Eh? Inko, honey; that amount is too much. Maybe if we go to another hospital, we might-"
"No. Izuku needs help now." She bit her lip before speaking. "I have to call him."
Mitsuki eyes widen "You don't mean-"
"Yes. Izuku's father. Now if you excuse me, I have a call to make." She said as she went outside the office.
She took her phone out. It was the same phone she had from years. She hasn't changed it. Just the battery. She still has a lot of the contacts of people she doesn't remember anymore.
Or the ones she doesn't want to remember.
She looked for the number and press on it once she founded it. She put the phone close to her ear and waited for someone to pick up. She doesn't want to do this, but it's her best choice.
There was a chance that he doesn't pick up. There had passed years since they last talked. She just hoped that he picked up.
Finally, the call was answered "I knew you would call me again someday." A man's voice said from the other end making Inko frown.
"We need to talk. It is about your son."
There was silence in the other end for some brief seconds, making Inko doubt about this. "Go to my house. We will talk better there." Then, just like that, he hung up.
Innko sighed as she put her phone away. She could just hope that this was a good idea. She went inside the office to ask Mitsuki stay here with Izuku and the woman agreed. Then she prepared for a long and hard talk.
Walking out of the hospital, she ordered a cab and went towards her destination. When she arrived, she saw the huge mansion that the father of her child lived in. There was a butler waiting at the entrance that guided her inside. He guided her towards the main room where she sat and waited patiently for the man to show up.
After some few minutes, dressed as formal as they come, came a muscular man, with red-spikey hair and a beard made out of fire. Inko stand up to look at the man's turquoise eyes.
"Inko," The man started, "It's been a while."
"Enji."
"We need your help."
And done! This was the first chapter of 'Will of Fire'. I know this one explains too little, btu in the next chapter, I'm going to show how Inko and Enji met. Also, Izuku will meet his half-brother, Shoto. And before I leave, some people asked me when I'm going to upload this story. Like a schedule. Well, I'm going to try to upload it once a month at least. Maybe, if I'm in a writing spree or really motivated, two chapters per month. And that's all! Remember to leave your Review that it helps a lot. PM me for any doubt or suggestion. Follow and Favorite the story and me.
Till Next Time.
